British designer John Pawson has collaborated with architecture studio Thomas Ford & Partners on the sensitive refurbishment of the St John at Hackney church in London.

The overhaul, which is Pawson’s first church project in the UK, focuses on reinstating and accentuating the Grade II*-listed building’s original design that was hidden by past renovations.

英國設計師約翰·鮑森(John Pawson)與建築工作室Thomas Ford&Partners合作,對倫敦哈克尼教堂的聖約翰進行了敏感的翻新。

這項大修是Pawson在英國的第一個教堂項目,重點是恢復和強調被列為II級*的建築物的原始設計,該建築被過去的翻新工程掩蓋了。

Pawson and Thomas Ford & Partners have also introduced a number of contemporary furnishings and facilities to the church, including a dark oak stage and sound system.

This is to better support the church’s function as a place of worship but also an art space and events venue, which has seen it welcome the likes of Coldplay and Florence and the Machine in recent years.

帕森(Pawson)和托馬斯·福特(Thomas Ford&Partners)還向教堂介紹了許多現代家具和設施,包括深色橡木舞台和音響系統。

這是為了更好地支持教堂的禮拜場所以及藝術空間和活動場所的功能,近年來,它吸引了Coldplay,佛羅倫薩和機器之家。

“The vision driving the refurbishment of this east London church was always of a
‘cathedral of creativity’, where architecture and people can come together in the richest ways possible, for a variety of purposes and activities, sacred and secular,” said Pawson.

“As a designer, it is my belief that such creativity is stimulated and fostered both by the detail of a physical environment and by the character of its atmosphere.”

“推動這座東倫敦教堂翻新的願景始終是
鮑爾森說:“創造力的大教堂”使建築和人們可以以最豐富的方式匯聚在一起,實現各種目的和活動,包括神聖的和世俗的。

“作為一名設計師,我相信,這種創造力既可以通過物理環境的細節,又可以通過其大氣環境的特徵得到激發和促進。”

St John at Hackney is the Anglican parish church of Hackney in east London. Its current form was designed in 1797 by architect James Spiller.

As part of the project, the church’s 18th-century exterior and roof have been restored and repaired, while its main entrance portico has been remodelled with ramps for wheelchairs.

哈克尼的聖約翰教堂是東倫敦的哈克尼教區教堂。 目前的形式是由建築師James Spiller在1797年設計的。

作為該項目的一部分,該教堂的18世紀外部和屋頂已得到修復和維修,而其主要入口門廊已通過輪椅坡道進行了改造。

Inside, alterations made to the building in recent years have been completely stripped back in order to restore the simplicity of its original Greek Cross plan – a type of church with a square central mass and four volumes of equal length on each side.

Two small chapels in the north and south wings have then been added, alongside the raised stage that doubles as a sanctuary – an area around an altar within a church.

在內部,為了恢復其最初的希臘十字架計劃的簡潔性,對建築物的改建已被完全剝離,這是一種具有正方形中央質量且兩側各等長的體積的教堂。

然後在南北兩翼增加了兩個小教堂,旁邊是作為聖所兼用的高架舞台-教堂內祭壇周圍的區域。

At the rear of the building, a series of compact rooms have been built over four storeys, which include office space, a green room and storage, connected via a new staircase and lift.

To unify each of the new areas with the nave of the church, their walls have all been lined with ribbed, dark oak panels. This also conceals the wiring of new building equipment.

在大樓的後部,在四層樓上建造了一系列緊湊的房間,包括辦公室空間,綠色空間和儲藏室,它們通過新的樓梯和電梯相連。

為了將每個新區域與教堂的中殿統一起來,它們的牆壁都襯有帶肋的深色橡木鑲板。 這也隱藏了新建築設備的佈線。

“I have used new architectural elements to define the different spaces and functions
within the body of the church,” explained Pawson.

“These elements incorporate much-needed storage, whilst also providing a framework for an integrated approach to lighting, acoustic and heating, clearing and simplifying the visual field.”

“我使用了新的建築元素來定義不同的空間和功能
在教堂內”,鮑森解釋說。

“這些元素整合了急需的存儲,同時也為照明,聲學和加熱,清潔和簡化視野的集成方法提供了框架。”

Pawson’ choice of dark oak panelling takes cues from St John at Hackney’s original organ and timber pews on the balcony, while the ribbed detail echoes the fluted finishes of structural columns.

This is designed to reconcile the old elements of the building with the new, while also creating contrast with the otherwise white interiors of the church.

St John at Hackney is complete with a new minimalist, circular font and processional cross designed by Pawson, alongside a light wood altar and matching lectern.

New signage all around the churchyard has been created by EBBA, while Es Devlin is currently developing an installation called Shared Sky that is due for completion in 2021.

帕森(Pawson)選擇的深色橡木鑲板汲取了哈克尼(Hackney)原始風琴的聖約翰(John)的暗示,陽台上設有木皮凳子,而帶肋的細節呼應了結構柱的槽紋飾面。

這樣做的目的是使建築物的舊元素與新元素協調一致,同時也與教堂的其他白色內部形成對比。

哈克尼的聖約翰(St John at Hackney)配有由鮑森(Pawson)設計的新的極簡主義圓形字體和遊行十字架,以及輕木祭壇和相配的講台。

EBBA在教堂墓地周圍創建了新的標牌,而Es Devlin目前正在開發名為Shared Sky的裝置,該裝置將於2021年完工。

Another notable church redesign by Pawson is the minimalist St Moritz Church in Augsburg, Germany. Here, he teamed Portuguese limestone floors with dark-stained wooden furniture and added pieces of onyx over the windows of the building to softly diffuse light.

More recently, he stacked up 61 tree trunks to create a chapel for rest and contemplation on a cycle route in southwest Germany. It is accessed through a rectangular opening carved out of one side of the structure.

帕森(Pawson)重新設計的另一座著名教堂是極簡主義的德國奧格斯堡聖莫里茨教堂。 在這裡,他將葡萄牙石灰石地板與深色家具合在一起,並在建築物的窗戶上添加了on瑪瑙,以柔和地散射光線。

最近,他堆積了61條樹幹,在德國西南部的自行車道上建立了一個休息和沈思的小教堂。 可通過刻在結構一側的矩形開口來訪問它。
